Appreciate nature from three breathtaking perspectives - Capilano Suspension Bridge, Treetops Adventure and the exciting new Cliffwalk.
The 450 ft (137m) long, 230 ft (70m) high Capilano Suspension Bridge has thrilled visitors since 1889. While the wobbly bridge and stunning location is a Vancouver landmark, Capilano Suspension Bridge Park offers an all-encompassing BC experience.
The new Cliffwalk follows a granite precipice along Capilano River on a labyrinth-like series of narrow cantilevered bridges, stairs and platforms through rainforest vegetation. With 16 anchor points in the cliff supporting the structure and two glass platforms, Cliffwalk is not for the faint of heart!

Whether you hike up the 'Grind' (also known to locals as 'nature's stair-master'), or ride the gondola to the peak, prepare yourself for a truly rewarding and memorable experience. At the top of the mountain there are a variety of cultural, educational and outdoor activities to choose from, and unique dining experiences in The Observatory restaurant and Altitudes Bistro.
Whale Watching
From March to October each year, thousands of whales migrate through the waters near Vancouver, making it one of the world’s best locations for whale watching. The waters around Vancouver Island host large resident pods of nearly 100 of these whales, as well as small pods of transient orcas that travel across wide ranges of coastline. From sea lions and otters, to dolphins and birds, British Columbia’s remote coastal areas are teeming with a wide range of marine creatures. Keep an eye out — and your camera ready.
Fluxwerx recommends Prince of Whales Whale and Marine Wildlife Adventures for your marine sightseeing pleasure. The tours depart from and return to Granville Island.
